SciAps Z-200 C+ Handheld LIBS Analyzer
SciAps Z-200 C+ Handheld LIBS Analyzer is a dedicated analyzer for alloy analysis including carbon content. It analyzes carbon content in stainless, down to 0.007 ppm, for dependable separation of L and H grades. The C+ also analyzes carbon steels, including carbon equivalents (CE) for weldability. The analyzer is available in two versions. The Z-200 C comes with iron-base calibrations including carbon. The Z-200 C+ includes both iron and stainless bases and carbon.
Features:
High-purity Argon and Purge. Argon purge is essential for quantitative analysis with LIBS and OES, and for carbon it is critical
High laser pulse energy and frequency. The SciAps laser delivers 5-6 mJ/pulse on the sample, with a 50 Hz repetition rate
Laser Raster. Rastering is a must for accurate carbon tests with LIBS. The laser is typically 100 um diameter beam and even the best sample prep may not completely remove surface contamination on this distance scale
High speed laser cleaning shots. Eliminates most surface sample prep
Eliminates bad burns. On-board camera and laser targeting eliminates poor quality “burns”
Android OS and Data SHARE Apps. Share data direct to your phone, sync with any computer globally, print to wireless printers
Applications:
Refinery companies
Inspection companies
Carbon analysis in alloys in the field in seconds
Carbon analysis in L, H and Standard Grade Stainless
High Laser Pulse Energy and Frequency
The SciAps laser delivers 5-6 mJ/pulse on the sample, with a 50 Hz repetition rate. As any spark OES user knows, sample prep is critical for carbon analysis. The high energy and high rep rate laser (50 Hz) rapidly burns off surface contamination in order to get a good analysis. A good grind and a good pre-burn is as critical for LIBS analysis as it is for spark OES.
